It’s now official, but do these admissions carry even a vestige of credibility? The US administration recently announced that it was grossly in error regarding internal intelligence assessments of the existence of WMDs in Iraq. Someone forgot to inform neo-con PR that the ‘bull’ has already wrecked the China shop. ... read full story / add a comment
Anti Tolls Protest in Navan
meath / miscellaneous Saturday April 02, 2005 - 10:43 by Proinsias Mac Fhearghusa   image 1 image
The M3 will be tolled twice in County Meath.

A commuter for example, traveling from north of Navan hoping to travel on the M3 to work in Lucan or south of the M50 will be forced to pay 3 tolls there and 3 tolls back—6 tolls per day, 30 per week.

The entire M3 debate seems to revolve around a controversial 3km at the Hill of Tara, and the double tolling of the M3 has largely been ignored by our elected representatives in Dáil Éireann.

Using the current M50 toll charge of €1.80 per car for calculation purposes you would have to pay €10.80 per day or €54.00 per week to get there and back! This is unacceptable.

This is just one of many issues affecting the M3 including possible route construction delays and building across the old Dublin Navan Railway line close to Navan without putting in bridges before the M3 is built.

Meath needs an M3 now, without delays or double tolls.

Zimbabwe yesterday celebrated an election which polarised democratic opinion in that state, and amongst Zimbabweans 25% of whom are outside the country and were denied a vote.

In addition observers from Non governmental organisations such as Amnesty had previously declared the vote would be "rigged".

As it stands, an election described by Mr Mugabe as the "fairest anyone anywhere could hope for", on average less than 47% have exercised their right to vote, in secret, regardless of ethnicity, gender, creed or socio economic class... ... read full story / add a comment

"This weekend’s Irish Medical Organisation annual general meeting will give members an opportunity to vent their frustration with the Fianna Fáil/ Progressive Democrat government, which has failed to deliver the badly-needed reforms promised in the health reform programme.

The new Minister for Health, Mary Harney, no doubt, will tell delegates that progress has been made on a number of key issues.

But this will not be enough for the GPs, consultants, NCHDs and public health doctors, who know from first-hand experience that the health service continues to be under-resourced and badly managed."
